Back to the Races - Chadwick Stokes lyrics

rate me

Cannot face the past

I'd rather face the dark

Don't know what to say

Don't know where you are

Is love too strong a god

How long do we have to go

Ever tempted by

How far we'd have to fall

To feel that way again

I'll come back for the farm

I would've met you there

But I got terribly lost

You waited there so long

Finally you walked off

And I just passed the road

The road I shoulda turned

On ... on your mark

You have my word

That I'll return

If you don't look back

And up we'll go

As it was on earth

So shall it be, so, so shall it be

I'll be in the shed

Waiting for the ram to sleep

I just combed my hair

So that maybe you'd like me

Everything to all

And all that fades away

But I can see you on

I can see you

On ... on your mark

You have my word

That I'll return

If you don't look back

And up we'll go

As it was on earth

So shall it be so... so shall it be so

Lights blown out

On our backs

Sold our capes

To make it back

Beat the sword

Into a plow

Take my place

Take it now .... and go

Back to the races

And on with the day

Back where the sacred are

Back to the races

And off with their heads

Let the kings horses fall

Run

The fall might arrive

One more minute please Ma

Before we go inside

It's not dark to me

No it's not dark at all

And all the confederate kings

Are waiting in the hall

On your mark...

You have my word

That I'll return

If you don't look back

And up we'll go

As it was on earth

So shall it be so...

So shall it be so, and go

Back to the races

And on with the day

Back where the sacred are

Back to the races

And off with their heads

Let the kings horses fall

Back to the races

And on with the day

Back where the sacred are

Back to the races

And off with their heads

Let the kings horses fall

Back to the races

And on with the day

Back where the sacred are

Back to the races

And off with their heads

Let the kings horses fall

One more time around

One more race to go

Send my name to the owls

Will I see you far below

Please don't turn around

Cause they'll take me back away

I can feel the moon

Dragging me towards the race<br />

<br />
